Underwater Photos by Peter Landecker

Bonaire --- May 28 to June 12, 2010

I had a delightful time diving in Bonaire. This country is part of the Netherlands Antilles, and is located just north of Venezuela. I logged 70 hours underwater and 52 dives (all using 32 percent Nitrox). My longest dives were on Buddy's Reef, with very easy access to a beautiful underwater garden, day and night. Our group was offered 9 boat dives per week to places such as Kline Bonaire Island (opposite Buddy's Dive Resort) and the National Park (at the north end of Bonaire) as well as other dive sites generally not accessible from the beach. In addition, we had included pick-up trucks so we could make beach dives and use the famous Buddy's Tank Drive-Through for refills. Most of the interesting things to see underwater were in the 30-100 foot depth range. Twenty sample underwater photos are included below (click on the link in the title for more information about the critter):
